Text in rainmeter

[silverspoons]

Could someone tell me if it's possible to rotate text in a rainmeter skin?

i do believe it is possible but i'm not sure how it would be written in the ini file since i'm not real good with that sort of thing. Best place to ask for help is on the rainmeter forum for that question. http://rainmeter.net/forum/

To rotate or angle the text simply add Angle= to text you want to change

The value needs to be in radians
To convert from degrees to radians online
enter the degrees you want in a Google search box " 30 degrees to radians "
and Google will convert it.
Depending on the angle you choose you may have to make the skins box bigger
and changethe texts position:
x= is right to left
y= is up and down
w= is width of skin
h= is height of skin

thanks Big v.I should also add depending on which way you want to go, you may need to use a negative number.The first letter is the pivot point.minus numbers move the end up ,positive numbers move it down
